Frequently Asked Questions
Is Remington HTP 40 S&W 180gr JHP suitable for everyday concealed carry?
Yes. Remington HTP is specifically engineered for defensive use, featuring a hollow point design that expands to double its diameter upon impact for rapid energy transfer. The 180-grain bullet weight is one of the most popular choices in 40 S&W for self-defense, offering a balance of penetration depth and expansion consistent with FBI ballistic standards.
Will this ammunition cycle reliably in my semi-automatic pistol?
Remington HTP is loaded to SAAMI specifications using first-quality brass cases and consistent propellant charges, making it compatible with the vast majority of 40 S&W semi-automatic pistols from manufacturers like Glock, Smith & Wesson, Sig Sauer, and Springfield Armory. As with any defensive ammunition, it is recommended to fire a test quantity through your specific firearm to verify reliable feeding and extraction before trusting it for carry.
How does the 180-grain bullet compare to lighter 40 S&W loads for self-defense?
The 180-grain JHP is the heaviest common projectile weight in 40 S&W and typically offers deeper penetration and slightly lower velocity compared to lighter 155–165 grain options. This makes it an excellent choice for those who prioritize penetration through heavy clothing or other barriers. Lighter loads may offer faster expansion at the cost of depth, so the 180gr is often preferred by those who want maximum reliability in real-world defensive scenarios.
